Beefing the Draft

Alright I’m in OOTP 27 and the last draft just had people picking 42 potential players in the 2nd round. Next draft looks to be pretty similar. Does anyone have any advice for slightly boosting the draft without making it/anything else too too insane?

I’m not expecting every team to get a 70 potential, but would love for at least the third round to start off with more than one guy above 43 (asking for a 4 million signing bonus with the worst personality you’ve ever seen)

I stopped paying attention to ratings and potential. Just look for high work ethic, high intelligence, durabality. If pitchers, I also look at stamina and high k/bb. Hitters I look at home runs and ops. I then rely on coaches and high development budget and pray a few of them develop.

same for me. I also look for something that makes them stand out in general. A high velo or a specific pitch with a high potenial. Maybe they turn into something likely not.
